"Yidao" General Outline, Second Edition
Zero Extremes Return to the Origin
The Great Path is the source, from the Wuji (Infinite) initially born.
Market rises and falls in cycles, bulls and bears alternate, all trading laws and market changes originate from the return to the fundamental Great Path, where all affairs and trends follow nature.
One Yuan · One Heart Settles the Nature
The essence of trading begins with cultivating the mind.
Abstain from greed, fear, impatience, and luck, strictly adhere to the original intention of trading.
Do not open positions emotionally, do not force against the trend to gamble.
A calm mind ensures a stable market, a righteous heart leads a long road, standing firm in principles and mindfulness, only then can one endure in the market.
Two Forms · Yin and Yang Divide the Trend
The market chart divides into Yin and Yang, the market divides into bulls and bears.
Yang represents bullish attack and an upward trend; Yin signifies bearish suppression and a market retreat.
Yin and Yang cycle back and forth, bulls and bears switch roles, rises and falls are normal.
Understanding the transformation of Yin and Yang is to understand the underlying rhythm of the market.
Three Powers · Heaven, Earth, and Humanity in Harmony
Heaven represents the seven luminaries and celestial timing; Earth is the market structure; Humanity involves position-taking and decision-making.
Grasp celestial timing and follow the trend, leverage structural advantages, control human nature and inner demons.
Only when the three powers resonate can one take action; lacking one, wait and observe, never enter blindly.
Four Symbols · Stages of Prosperity and Decline
Yang (Yang Shao) market starts, the Sun trend leads upward; Yin (Yin Shao) high-level stagnation, Taiyin market weakens.
The four symbols divide the market’s rhythm of prosperity and decline, clearly distinguish initiation, uplift, recession, and correction.
Predict the cycle rotation, pinpoint market nodes, follow the trend without going against it.
Five Elements · The Energy Origin
Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth are the core energies of market rises and falls.
Market movements, strength, speed, and interactions are all dominated by the five elements.
The five elements are the foundation of all market changes; all analysis originates from their circulation.
Six Harmonies · Spatial Boundaries
The six lines of the Hexagram define support, resistance, and zone boundaries.
Within the zone, oscillate and accumulate strength; breaking through the boundary signals a trend change.
Understand the space and boundaries, control entry, stop-loss, and take-profit points, act with purpose and clarity.
Seven Luminaries · Celestial Timing and Trends
The seven luminaries carry the five elements; their rotation over seven days embodies market energy in time.
They are responsible for setting the trend, determining daily market strength, aura, and bias of rise or fall.
K-line patterns can be manipulated, but celestial aura is free of falsehood.
Trend leads, shape follows; trading must first follow celestial timing.
Seven Luminaries' Trading Attributes
Monday | Moon · Water → Fluctuations and reversals, large divergence, avoid heavy positions chasing trades
Tuesday | Mars · Fire → Intense volatility, emotional agitation, rapid rises and falls
Wednesday | Mercury · Water · Wood → Rebound and recovery, renewed vitality, suitable for low-entry positions
Thursday | Jupiter · Wood · Wood → Trend continuation, sufficient momentum, trend-following extends easily
Friday | Venus · Metal → Convergence and pause, frequent turning points, be cautious of pullbacks at high levels
Saturday | Saturn · Earth → Sideways consolidation, market dormant, patiently wait for breakthroughs
Sunday | Sun · Fire → Emotional surge, frequent divergences, reversals likely at the close
Seven Luminaries and Ba Gua Trading Logic
The seven luminaries embody the internal celestial timing; the Ba Gua reveals the external shape of the K-line.
• Complementary: The five elements of the luminaries and the Ba Gua trigram share the same origin, celestial timing aids trend, structure is genuine, and trend continuity is strong.
• Contradiction and Clash: The five elements of the luminaries restrain the Ba Gua trigram, even if the pattern looks good, internal momentum may be lacking, often leading to false signals and reversals, beware of reversals.
Ba Gua · K-line Pattern Formation
Use five core pivot K-lines as the core to generate the hexagram, dedicated to pattern formation.
Define the pivot structure, bull and bear layout, and K-line shape.
Clearly distinguish between consolidation, weak rebounds, and true or false reversals.
Only observe the visible market trend, identify genuine from fake structures, without disturbing celestial energy.
Nine Palaces · Cycle and Energy Judgment
The nine palaces analyze market cycles, energy flow, and exhaustion points.
When trend and shape are set, the continuation cycle, upward momentum, and final target are determined by the nine palaces.
When energy is abundant, trend continues; when exhausted, the market ends. Pre-judge the closing nodes of the trend.
Ten Directions · Execution and Closure
All analysis, judgment, and system logic ultimately lead to execution.
Position management, strict stop-loss, take-profit implementation, discipline in entry and exit, encompass the ten trading principles.
Understand the overall trend, see the pattern clearly, only through strict execution can profits be realized.
